Edinson Cavani questions the Premier League's unanimous decision to block players from representing their countries in UK's 'red-list' zones next month - with Man United forward set to miss World Cup qualifying triple-header for Uruguay

Manchester United striker Edinson Cavani has expressed his bemusement at the Premier League's decision not to let their players head off on international duty in 'red-list' countries next month.

Uruguay international Cavani is therefore set to miss the World Cup qualifying triple-header as his homeland falls into the 'red-list' category.
